Over an hour passed as Carmela sat in her car, sipping the bottle of vodka, just staring at her phone in the next seat beside her.

"I hate this... oh God, I hate this so much--UGHHHHH." She almost pulled out her hair with frustration and kicked around in her seat.

Her eyes travelled to her phone for a quick second, and she groaned, slumping in her seat, her face pressed against the window.

Jules house was right outside her car window. She had found herself driving to it right after meeting Roxana at the club.

Taking a deep breath, Carmela straightened up and gazed at the sandy-bricked house with determined eyes.

Alright, calm down girl. You have to do this. Just give him a call, for Jules. Besides, it's not real... You're just putting on a show for a little bit.

She glanced at her phone again with pursed lips, and without even looking at it, snatched it right off the passengers seat. She opened her eyes to the lit up screen, groaning and squirming some more.

"Okay. Here I go. I got this--" Carmela chanted.

Her fingers hovered above his number.

*Kim Taehyung*

She had deleted the messages they had exchanged a life time ago, messages that had once made Carmela squeal and giggle with excitement. But that was a false person. Now she had found out that this boy wasn't the Tae from before. That Tae had never even existed.

Closing her eyes, she pressed call.

She brought the phone to her ear, hesitantly.

The rings repeated into her ear, and she felt her chest grow tighter and tighter.

"...."

"Hello?"

"...."

"...."

"... Carmela?"

Carmela couldn't speak for a moment. Her lungs had just stopped.

"Hi." She finally replied.

"U-hm--ahem-- how are you?" His very low voice sounded thin and jittery.

"I'm fine. Look--" Be nice, Carmela. Be sweet. Be a kind little angel, put on that smile!

"What is it?"

"I just... I... I want to see you." She chewed her lips, struggling to keep her voice soft and calm.

"....."

"You want to see me?"

"That's what I said, didn't I?" Shit, control, girl! Keep that anger under control.

".... okay."

"...."

"Why?"

Carmela struggled to find words.

"There's um... like, just something I wanted to talk to you about." She cleared her throat. "I was hoping... we could talk about... getting back together--"

"What? Are you serious?"

"Well, I've just thinking about it alot... and I don't know, I just... can't seem to forget you."

"......"

"Carmela... I... wow...."

"So, can we meet?"
